protoc-gen-validate
is a plugin that generates validation code.protovalidate
uses runtime libraries instead, and does not require code generation.This seems to be a frequent point of confusion for users when migrating. E.g. #275, #269, #177, #178, #73, #47.
I suggest we spell out this major difference in the main readme and the migration guide.
